Leamington Community Improvement Plan opinion survey underway Leamington’s Municipal Council has approved the development of a Community Improvement Plan which will examine ways to make enhancements in the commercial core that will attract investment, new business, and encourage enjoyment of the traditional heart of the community. Stakeholder consultation is a very important part of this process. Merchant and resident surveys are being conducted to gather opinions from as many stakeholders as possible. Residents and visitors are encouraged to complete a short, confidential survey which will provide them an opportunity to convey their vision for uptown Leamington. Print surveys, along with drop boxes, have been distributed throughout the community. In addition, municipal staff and volunteers will attend community events and will have the surveys on hand for completion. Upcoming events include Marina Concerts on July 10, 17, 24 and 31, the Uptown Leamington BIA Sidewalk sale on July 22 and 23, and the Marina grand re-opening on July 23. The survey will also be available on the Municipality’s web site www. leamington.ca, as well as through FaceBook and Twitter. A draft Community Improvement Plan is expected to be completed in November, at which time a public meeting will be held for further discussion.

Arts @ the Marina AT RIGHT: Arts @ the Marina enjoyed nice weather on Saturday, July 2 during the day, but Saturday night’s high winds and torential rainfall wrecked havoc on the tents and their contents which were set up overnight. The ladies of the Leamington Area Ecumenical Refugee Committee lost their hand-made tent and some of their loom works in the storm.
